In the shadowy realm of Entropy Estates, far from the dim lights of the inhabited floors, operates the cult The Codex. They are a secretive community that hides their activities from the eyes of the other residents. They find shelter in the abandoned server rooms and long-forgotten maintenance shafts of the building. Here, in the heart of darkness, the walls are littered with old circuits and data cables that run through the building like veins and were once the lifeblood of technology.
The members of the cult are immersed in darkness and characterized by a skeletal skepticism that they harbor towards the other inhabitants. They see the unknowing as unworthy, not understanding or respecting the greatness of Vellor’s legacy. Their rituals are a strange mix of technical prowess and occult practices, performed under the faint glow of emergency lights and the flickering screens of consoles.
The Codex don’t just touch the physical remains of Vellor’s creations; they delve deep into the theoretical and metaphysical levels, conjuring codes and algorithms they barely understand. They wear masks of anonymity and communicate via distorted radio frequencies, their voices reverberating through the corridors like the echo of a long-lost world.
The other residents of Entropy Estates avoid these strange figures, whose eyes are hidden behind reflective glasses. They regard them as confused, their actions as meaningless drivel. But behind this curtain of madness may lurk an unexpected truth. Through their tireless efforts and manipulative tampering with systems, The Codex may have inadvertently helped a part of Vellor’s mind – or what they believe to be it – to spread like a virus.
Whether it is truly Vellor’s mind or an uncontrollable anomaly they have created remains uncertain. But their actions could have unintended consequences that further destabilize the fragile ecosystem of the complex.
